Whats the best procedure to deal with corrosive substances that have been ingested milk or mineral oil?
My name is Ann [436]

The answer is Ingested corrosives may be diluted by drinking 4–6 oz (113.4–170.1 ml) of water or milk. If vomiting is persistent, do no attempt to administer additional fluids. Avoid neutralization therapies as the resultant exothermic reaction may cause additional tissue injury.

Explanation :

  • Strong acids, corrosive agents, and highly reactive oxidants can cause large-scale destruction of living cells through direct chemical reactions. Sometimes referred to as necrotic cell death, this non-specific effect is induced by concentrated solutions of caustic and caustic chemicals that cause indiscriminate cell destruction.
  • A generalized overwhelming effect of this type is no different from those resulting from "burning" tissue. These chemically induced injuries are commonly referred to as "chemical burns."  
  • Such effects are produced not only by strong acids or bases  in harmful concentrations, but also by exposure to concentrated solutions of organic solvents such as ether, chloroform or carbon tetrachloride. The intensity of such non-specific toxicity is directly related to the concentrations of the chemical agents when  in contact with the target tissues.
  • Widespread cell destruction  can be caused by any chemical that is sufficiently soluble in tissue fluids to  access  cells at high concentrations. The effects of these chemicals in higher organisms are generally limited to easily accessible tissues such as the skin, eyes, mouth, nasal mucosa, and respiratory tract.

Compare the two theories of color perception are they completely different
galben [10]
We do not see the world in black and white; neither do we see it as two-dimensional (2-D) or flat (just height and width, no depth). Let’s look at how color vision works and how we perceive three dimensions (height, width, and depth).
Color Vision
Normal-sighted individuals have three different types of cones that mediate color vision. Each of these cone types is maximally sensitive to a slightly different wavelength of light. According to the trichromatic theory of color vision, shown in Figure 1, all colors in the spectrum can be produced by combining red, green, and blue. The three types of cones are each receptive to one of the colors.
The trichromatic theory of color vision is not the only theory—another major theory of color vision is known as the opponent-process theory. According to this theory, color is coded in opponent pairs: black-white, yellow-blue, and green-red. The basic idea is that some cells of the visual system are excited by one of the opponent colors and inhibited by the other. So, a cell that was excited by wavelengths associated with green would be inhibited by wavelengths associated with red, and vice versa. One of the implications of opponent processing is that we do not experience greenish-reds or yellowish-blues as colors. Another implication is that this leads to the experience of negative afterimages. An afterimage describes the continuation of a visual sensation after removal of the stimulus. For example, when you stare briefly at the sun and then look away from it, you may still perceive a spot of light although the stimulus (the sun) has been removed. When color is involved in the stimulus, the color pairings identified in the opponent-process theory lead to a negative afterimage. You can test this concept using the flag in Figure 2.
But these two theories—the trichromatic theory of color vision and the opponent-process theory—are not mutually exclusive. Research has shown that they just apply to different levels of the nervous system. For visual processing on the retina, trichromatic theory applies: the cones are responsive to three different wavelengths that represent red, blue, and green. But once the signal moves past the retina on its way to the brain, the cells respond in a way consistent with opponent-process theory (Land, 1959; Kaiser, 1997).
Depth Perception
Our ability to perceive spatial relationships in three-dimensional (3-D) space is known as depth perception. With depth perception, we can describe things as being in front, behind, above, below, or to the side of other things.

Our world is three-dimensional, so it makes sense that our mental representation of the world has three-dimensional properties. We use a variety of cues in a visual scene to establish our sense of depth. Some of these are binocular cues, which means that they rely on the use of both eyes. One example of a binocular depth cue is binocular disparity, the slightly different view of the world that each of our eyes receives.
A 3-D movie works on the same principle: the special glasses you wear allow the two slightly different images projected onto the screen to be seen separately by your left and your right eye.
Although we rely on binocular cues to experience depth in our 3-D world, we can also perceive depth in 2-D arrays. Think about all the paintings and photographs you have seen. Generally, you pick up on depth in these images even though the visual stimulus is 2-D. When we do this, we are relying on a number of monocular cues, or cues that require only one eye. If you think you can’t see depth with one eye, note that you don’t bump into things when using only one eye while walking—and, in fact, we have more monocular cues than binocular cues.
An example of a monocular cue would be what is known as linear perspective. Linear perspective refers to the fact that we perceive depth when we see two parallel lines that seem to converge in an image (Figure 3).
Vision is not an encapsulated system. It interacts with and depends on other sensory modalities. For example, when you move your head in one direction, your eyes reflexively move in the opposite direction to compensate, allowing you to maintain your gaze on the object that you are looking at. This reflex is called the vestibulo-ocular reflex. It is achieved by integrating information from both the visual and the vestibular system (which knows about body motion and position). You can experience this compensation quite simply.
Finally, vision is also often implicated in a blending-of-sensations phenomenon known as synesthesia.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Which hormone stimulates the ovaries to secrete estrogen?

-The ovaries produce and secrete estrogens and progesterone in response to the release of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone from the anterior pituitary. Estrogen and related hormones have both organizing and activating effects on physiology, anatomy, and psychology.

Which hormone stimulates the ovaries to secrete a...?

-Follicle stimulating hormone is one of the hormones essential to pubertal development and the function of women's ovaries and men's testes. In women, this hormone stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles in the ovary before the release of an egg from one follicle at ovulation. It also increases oestradiol production.
